Chapter 100 One Hundred Meters

"One hundred meters more... and I'll escape the habitat of these savage beasts. At least I'll be rid of those damned tunnels beneath the swamp!" Fang Senyan muttered to himself. He looked regretfully at the approaching Lamtas.

"What a pity... Fortunately, I've already extracted your tissue. I should have the opportunity to cultivate you again in the future."

"Fifty meters."

"Forty meters!"

"Twenty meters!"

"These beasts sure are patient."

Just as Fang Senyan was about to leave the territory of the savage beasts, only fifteen meters away from the edge of a tunnel, violent explosions suddenly erupted in the swamp on his left and right!

Amidst the flying mud and water, two massive, mud-covered black shadows lunged out again, attacking from the upper left and lower right, almost completely blocking Fang Senyan's escape!

Fang Senyan took a deep breath, his eyes blazing with ferocity. He completely ignored the monster behind him, as a terrifying aura began to brew within his fist.

In that instant, a terrifying, colossal demon tree appeared behind Fang Senyan. This tree had no leaves, only tendril-like branches that wildly thrashed and whipped.

Even more terrifying, the dense, phantom roots of the demon tree plunged deep into the ground, dozens, even hundreds of meters deep, its astonishing root system dividing into ten, a hundred, a million! Spreading and occupying an area of several square kilometers, they all fiercely sucked and drew!

Purple hyacinth reeds, water bamboo, and duckweed within a radius of several kilometers instantly withered and wilted. Their fresh, verdant leaves turned dry and yellow in an instant, as if they had been scorched under the sun, completely losing their moisture and vitality, crumbling into powder at the slightest touch. Their life force had been completely drained!

Fang Senyan's fist struck out!

At the tip of his fist, the distinct outline of a main tentacle of the Solar Ladder appeared, flashing into a massive root web, splitting at an indescribable speed, spreading forward like a blanket, and fiercely binding the larger monster in front of him!

Immediately, the phantom solidified, turning a bizarre dark black, the exact color of the Ouroboros venom. Millions of tiny root hairs tightly wrapped around the surface of the massive, strange monster's body!

The monster's incomparably hard black carapace became as fragile as tofu, and countless fine wounds were cut all over its body, spraying out a large amount of yellow-green fluid.

The Erosion Beast!

Fang Senyan had actually activated the Virus Halo ability a long time ago. However, he discovered that because of the limited and simplistic diseases he currently possessed, although he could infect the savage beasts or the monsters in front of him, the diseases could inflict damage, but they were not very effective.

For example, the normally useful negative effect "violent cough" was useless because the savage beasts had no lungs or trachea and breathed through pores in their skin. Although the Solar Ladder had evolved after devouring its own kind when Fang Senyan advanced to a Colonizer, it could convert this cough into other forms of damage, but the pain would only make the savage beasts more violent, and the effect was not as good.

Only the powerful and domineering Erosion Beast! Was as savage and terrifying as ever. Its fearsome power was overwhelming!

After being fiercely entangled by the Erosion Beast, the monster immediately let out an indescribably shrill scream, making anyone who heard it feel as if their soul was trembling in pain.

At this moment, Boqan widened his eyes and couldn't help but mutter:

"Just how many secrets does that Sailor guy have? Is that bastard really just a Colonizer?"

Ronnie, who was still fleeing ahead, couldn't help but turn his head, unconsciously stopping in his tracks. Like a child watching a magnificent fireworks display, he stared blankly with his mouth open for several seconds before silently continuing to flee, his head hanging even lower.

Ronnie had nothing to say at this point. To be precise, he was speechless towards Fang Senyan. This m's burst damage was actually higher than his own, who was positioned as an output dealer! Therefore, the look in his eyes towards Fang Senyan could only be described with the words "sincere admiration," or even "complete surrender."

However, the expression on Ardarist's face had become quite ugly. The fingers gripping the dagger's hilt had turned white, and he squeezed out three words from between his teeth:

"How... how can this bastard be so freakish?!"

Looking again at the monster that had intercepted Fang Senyan, purple-black spots had appeared on its body surface, rapidly spreading. The tough skin quickly swelled up, and the spots began to fester and enlarge, seeming to turn into tofu skin that would break with a single touch. Even with slight movement, a foul-smelling, bloody pulp would spray out.

It screamed in pain and was sent flying by Fang Senyan's punch. It staggered and ran for about ten meters before slipping and collapsing into the swamp, splashing mud everywhere. It struggled to get up again, swayed for another twenty meters, and then plunged back into a hole beneath the swamp.

However, when Fang Senyan threw that punch, he had almost completely exposed his back to the enemy. The larger black monster that was attacking from behind could now do as it pleased. First, it reached out with its two forelimbs to grab Fang Senyan.

However, Fang Senyan was in the process of charging forward and was still brewing the Erosion Beast. The Solar Ladder's overwhelming ferocity had truly intimidated this creature, slowing its reaction by a fraction of a second, so Fang Senyan managed to dodge successfully, but the sharp claws on its forelimbs tore off a large piece of flesh from Fang Senyan's back.

But, after Fang Senyan released the Erosion Beast, he entered a stiff period where he needed to recover his breath and completely lost his ability to dodge, leaving him almost defenseless.

Now, the monster behind him missed its attack and immediately continued to charge forward. Its hideous, jet-black bone tail stabbed out like lightning. Blood splattered as it pierced through Fang Senyan's back and emerged from his chest, running him through from back to front!

The damage from this attack was considerable. However, after releasing the Erosion Beast, Fang Senyan had already planned for such a fatal blow, so he immediately used the Honor Potion, instantly replenishing his health.

No matter how strong the monster's attack was, it could never instantly kill Fang Senyan!

Intense pain instantly spread throughout his body. This was not just the severe pain from being pierced through, but also because there were many small holes around the bone tail that had pierced his body, frantically spewing venom, corroding Fang Senyan's body. The Solar Ladder's power could only quickly absorb and neutralize the continuous damage from the poison, but the initial corrosive damage of the venom could sometimes not be completely eliminated.

Taking advantage of the long tail's forward thrust, Fang Senyan gritted his teeth and exerted force again, rushing forward. However, this action was equivalent to pulling the bone tail out of his body, like the secondary damage suffered from pulling out an arrow in ancient times. Blood spurted out, and Fang Senyan clutched his bloody chest wound, struggling to run, but his movement speed was still inevitably affected.

The huge, hideous black shadow behind him continued to pursue him relentlessly. It seemed that at its speed, it would soon catch up with Fang Senyan. Just as the three people in the distance were about to rush to his aid, they saw Lamtas arriving in time from the side, roaring and charging towards the huge, hideous black shadow.

The wild boar-man's brute force immediately came into play. Its tusks fiercely rammed into the side of the huge, hideous black shadow, knocking it down into the mud.

Under Lamtas's desperate, frenzied attack and interception, Fang Senyan finally managed to escape the territory of the ferocious beasts—at least he didn't have to worry about sudden ambushes from beneath his feet. He clutched his chest and looked at Lamtas being submerged by the legendary ferocious beast and the ordinary ferocious beasts that followed like a tide with a complicated expression and sighed softly, saying:

"Let's go."

Next, the ferocious beasts relentlessly pursued them, but after the four people reunited, although they were a group of remnants and defeated soldiers, their combat effectiveness in this situation of the enemy pursuing them while they fled, and maintaining a certain distance, was completely different from their combat effectiveness when they were surrounded on all sides.

The group fought and retreated, and soon, Fang Senyan, Boqan, and Ardarist executed a precise coordinated attack. Boqan's terrain alteration, combined with Fang Senyan's curse potion for crowd control, and Ardarist's Mind Storm, which had finished its cooldown, formed a huge trap, instantly killing more than eighty ordinary ferocious beasts, immediately halting their offensive.

Next, Boqan's MP value had also recovered partially. With the protection of his three companions, and the enemies chasing from one direction, he naturally had no worries about his spells being interrupted, so he seized the opportunity to chant loudly and continuously, summoning a rolling, giant stone ball on a dry patch of ground, crushing more than twenty ferocious beasts into mincemeat.

Such continuous losses finally caused the pursuing ferocious beasts to completely give up and return to their nests.
